Aperçu
Pairing: breakfast pastries, aged cheese, or dark chocolate
Black tea is one of the most recent types to be produced: it was first made in China, possibly in response to European tastes, in the late 1700s or early 1800s. This new style of Chinese black tea is a worthy addition to the category; its sleek black leaves yield a dark amber infusion and earthy aroma. Produced on an organic farm in Zhejiang Province at 2,400 feet elevation, its rich flavor—with distinct notes of ginseng and sweet potato—holds up through a few infusions. Fans of Keemun or Assam will enjoy the depth and strength. Country: ChinaRegion: Zhejiang ProvinceTasting Notes: earthy, ginseng, sweet potatoHarvest Season: Spring 2024
